Review Of L'OREAL PARIS True Match BB Cream

Good evening to all the beautiful people reading my blog. Today I'm going to review L'OREAL PARIS True Match BB Cream, after personally using it for sometime now πŸ™‚

I have an extremely oily and acne prone, sensitive skin and its really difficult for me to use any product without my skin breaking out. Especially in summers, the skin problems just seem to aggravate. So I have to be really choosy while selecting products for my skin. So this summer I decided to explore the BB creams over heavy makeup. And I am sure not complaining for that!

Lets get back to our product review:

L'OREAL PARIS True Match BB Cream



Packaging: Sturdy, travel friendly, the press tube is hygienic and chances of spill/wastage is very less.
Key ingredients are: Water, dimethicone, glycerin, isododecane, ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate, alcohol, PEG-10 dimethicone, dipropylene glycol, betaine, talc, diisotearyl malate, disteardimonium hectorite, ethylhexyl hydroxystearate, henoxyethanol, magnesium sulphate, silica, apricot kernel oil, dimethiconol, aluminium starch octenylsuccinate, dimethicone crosspolymer, vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer, disodium stearoyl glutamate, tocopheryl acetate, paciflora edulis seed oil, macadamia ternifolia seed oil, coriander fruit oil, jojoba seed oil, ascorbyl glucoside, alumina, sodium hyaluronate, pentaerythrityl tetraisostearate, aluminium hydroxide, adenosine, silica dimethyl silylate, sodium chondroitin sulphate, atelocollagen. It also may contain: titanium dioxide, bismuth oxychloride, iron oxides.




Claims: Skin Clarity, Anti Ageing
Price: INR 670/- for 30 ml

My Experience: L'OREAL PARIS True Match BB Cream comes in 3 shades Ivory, Honey and Gold and I am using the Honey shade (the medium one) and it works well for me. True to its claims, it does makes the skin tone uniform and can be used by oily skinned beauties safely. The consistency is medium, neither runny nor thick and is fairly easy to apply. A little goes a long way. I use it after cleansing and toning routine. I did not get any breakouts, however, my T zone needs a compact touch up as the BB Cream is not mattifying enough for me there. I use the compact powder from the same L'OREAL True Match range and its better when used together. It is a very noble substitute for a foundation, on really hot days when i want to go easy on my skin as well as look good.πŸ’ƒ But I do need to blot the oil on my T-zone periodicallyπŸ˜• Because of this one issue, I've reserved it's usage mostly for the evenings when I do not have to worry about the shine part much, which infact looks good at that time of the day, all glowy, clear and beautiful.....But that way i do not get to enjoy the benefits of spf 35 pa+++ which is also a good add on to a BB Cream. Perhaps winters would be the best time to really enjoy all the benefits of this cream for oily skinned beauties like me.
Price wise I wish it could be somewhere in the INR 500/- range for that quantity !
(thats just a wish πŸ’°πŸ˜œ)

Pros: Even skin tone, SPF 35Pa+++, good as a substitute for heavy make up for that subtle look, good staying power upto 4-5 hrs. πŸ‘

Cons: Limited shades, not absolutely mattifying for oily skin nor completely moisturising for dry skin 😬, may leave a whitish cast.

My Rating: 3.5/5

If you ask me would i buy it again? I'd say although the product is decent, its not my absolute favourite as of now, so i'll have to think about it once its over!

Thankyou for your patient reading folks πŸ€—

Stay beautiful in all seasons 🌸

Crazy in love!

'I could walk on rivers, i could fly above the clouds or perhaps i could achieve the unimaginable!' Thats what she felt everytime she felt loved. Its a divine and jubiliant feeling to have someone to love you and be able to give the same love. In this state of mind, if anyone warned her to be practical, all she would want to say to that person was 'Dont be jealous'
Oh Stupid love !

A hopeless romantic soul that she was, she always ended up being too engrossed in the fairy world she created for herself. Letting the harsh reality of the world penetrate deep into her soul and scarring it more too often. Those sweet words he said didnt seem to last forever. Her tears would often go unnoticed. It couldnt happen to her. She was pretty, young, she cared and she loved, wasnt it enough? The first kiss still lingered on her lips and she could remember his fragrance from the first embrace they shared. Yet somehow, that was just not enough. The story of her life had shifted its direction from a love story to a tragically sad one.

She remembered how once she had felt strong, as she now lay weak. And still she thinks why would he do that? As she recluses herself from the world she once loved to dance in, she still hopes that this was all a dream and she wakes up one day in his arms again.

'Love may lose its way but eventually it will come back to you' as she murmurs herself to sleep.......
